It ! at leant an open question whether the
Grammars now In use In our schools ought not
to be changed. If we aro correctly informed
they aro condemned by nearly all the teachers
using ihcm and tho want of interest evinced by
pupils In .his branch of study indicates some
thing wrong somewhere. The scries now used
lias nothing In the way of language lessons
specially adopted lo the wants of primary
schools. We understand that books elsewhere
very popular nro 'offered at prices even lower
than the reduced prices of Clark's and It might
be well for the board to consider whether tho
best Interests of tho schools do not demand Im
mediate action in reference lo this question es
pecially ns the comparatively few books used In
this study In the schools makes the expense
tho merest.

Sir : Corporal Keman D. Lee of Co. H. 1st
Cavalry was killed in battle with Indians on
the morning of Juno 17 1877. When I last saw
him ho was mortally wounded. We were forced
to retreat leaving our wounded In the hands of

were found about 10 cI.ivm after the battle and

It is not generally known thotneertainyoung
man hns been appointed n Lieutenant in tho
Pinkerton Dctectiro Agency, and stationed at
this place to keep an cyo on the jail, and on
certain suspicious characters supposed to bo In
our midst. Tho young man whoso namo wo
nro not permitted to publish, tint whom we will
call John Gilpin, is ono of our townsmen, nnd
wo feel honored that so rcspons'blo a position
has been entrusted to him. Ono reason why
this detective was appointed is probably tho
fact of the assault recently mado by Kelly, tho
"Hum" on a young man from Centro town
ship, who visited tho jail and camo nway with
n good deal of skin peeled from his nose, nnd
it was deemed ndvisnbie to put some one in
command up there who would preserve onlcr.
Our young detective received a few days sinco
letter signed Allnn Pinkerton with his ap
pointment, nnd was accordingly sworn in with
solemn ceremonies by tho Coal nnd Iron Police.
Pulling a new man over them did not take very
ell, but Gilpin smoothed the matter over by
promoting Samuel Wynne, nn old member of
tho force, to n lieutenancy, subject of course to
Gilpin's orders. Everything is moving on
smoothly now. The lieutenant occupies his
ays in looking about the jail and keeping
things straight, ami ill the evenings ho disguises
himself and watches for some one to nrrest. It
as reported on Monday last that several no
torious Mollies were in town, nnd ho at onco
started on their track, but soon discovered that
they were only delegates from Conyngham
town-hip, and entirely harmless.

officer, ns ho desires to remain unknown for the toration of local self government has resulted

Elegant Hair is woman's crowning beauty
when it, fades, she fades as well. While it is kept
bright her personal attractions are still maintain
ed. By preserving the hair fresh and vigorous a
youthful appearance is continued through many
years. Those who grieve over their fading
hair turning gray too early should know that
Ayer's Hair Vigor prevents it, and restores
gray or faded hair to its notural color. It is a
clear and healthful preparation, containing
neither oil, dye, nor anything deleterious, and
imports tj tho scalp what is most needed o
sere of pleosant and delightful freedom from
scurf or dandruff. Xew Rerne (A.C.) Times,
